The idea that 'Gospel, Community and Mission' is crucial to making mature disciples of Jesus may sound a little bit obvious to you at first. But it is surprising how few of us, and our churches, are careful to balance the focus and engagement of these powerful discipleship foundations. This week on the Everyday Disciple Podcast, we talk about why all three of these components must be consistently engaged in and balanced if we want disciples of Jesus to grow to full maturity.In This Episode You’ll Learn: Why we are seeing a lack of maturity in the Church today among Christians. How all 3... Gospel, Community, and Mission play a critical role in disciple-making. What it looks like when you only engage 2 of these 3 foundations with others. Practical resources for growing your people in Gospel, Community, and Mission.
Get started here…From this episode:"It is when we are out on God’s mission together, interacting with and serving others that are not exactly like us… or don’t always agree with us or appreciate our lives and perspective... that’s when our own unbelief, selfishness, personal preferences etc. all surface… and can then have the gospel applied to those areas of our lives. That doesn’t happen sitting in an air-conditioned classroom, with lots of hot coffee and snacks in the back, us taking notes and nodding in agreement."Each week the Big 3 will give you immediate action steps to get you started.Download today’s BIG 3 right now.

It happens over and over again: a political argument with a friend, a fight about racial issues on the internet, a disagreement with a coworker… At the first sign of conflict, we flee to a bunker with people who think like us and—internally or externally—attack everyone else.

There was a time when neighbors knew each other’s names... when children and old folks in the neighborhood had more than their families looking out for them. What happened? This week on the Everyday Disciple Podcast, we talk with author, Lance Ford, as we ask the question: can you really love your neighbor as much as you love yourself?We live in an age when it feels like we have very little time for new and trusting relationships–and it’s hard to trust people!

Maybe it’s time to change the narrative.In This Episode You’ll Learn: What the Bible really says about loving your neighbor. What we have lost as a society through hiding away and loving ourselves. Why incarnational presence is the “Jesus Model” for loving your neighbor. Practical steps to restoring our neighborhoods to become communities filled with love and redemption.

What personal challenges they faced to follow God deeper. The problems their small group experienced. (Not everyone loved the change!) The amazing adventure that this community now lives!

Church doctrines of grace and salvation can sometimes hinder us from fostering the expectation that we should be and make disciples. Do our current evangelism and discipleship models fall short of producing genuine followers of Jesus?This week on the Everyday Disciple Podcast, we explore the importance of reclaiming a strong understanding of the gospel and the vital link between conversion and discipleship.

Why conversion and discipleship are two sides of the same coin. The problems the Church experiences having split (or ignored) these two functions. Why having a bigger view of the gospel is the solution to this problem.
Get started here...From this episode:“You’ll never make a disciple from a non-discipleship gospel.

Get started here...Quote from this episode:“The Bible is best read and understood as a series of stories, narratives, that God has given to us humans to best understand who he is and what he is like. He proves this over and over as the Story that unfolds really does repeat itself from a zillion angles. All of this shows us what is true about us, our identity and how God sees us and how we get to live in this world and rightly interact with God and care for his creation, which includes other humans.” Each week the Big 3 will give you immediate action steps to get you started.Download today’s BIG 3 right now.

I put competency at the end of the list because, to be honest, it is something of a “second-tier” concern.

The importance of every leader having an apprentice. What happens if you're missing this type of care.
Get started here…From this episode:"Treating people like “stop gaps” to our problems in an area of ministry only reinforces a DO=BE mentality and ultimately demoralizes people.

That would mean that we would have to be engaging people in every area of their lives. There's no way to do that sitting in rows. and hearing a 30 45 minute message. We can speak about certain things, but we can't engage and help people necessarily move from unbelief to belief in every area of their life if we're not seeing and touching and getting a pulse on engaging every area of life."Each week the Big 3 will give you immediate action steps to get you started.Download today’s BIG 3 right now.
